Day of Mindful Expression

Join us for a day of practice in the spirit of mindful living in community with Will and Anya. Together, we slow down, return to the body, and allow space for expression to arise—through movement, sensing, and simple creative exploration. This is not about making art or doing anything “well,” but about coming into closer contact with our direct experience.

Through sitting meditation, guided somatic practice, walking meditation in nature, and a shared expression session, we explore how awareness can take form—through the body, through movement, and in connection with one another.

What to Expect
We will move through the day as a gentle arc of practice, including opening circle and sitting meditation, guided somatic awareness practice, walking meditation in nature with a simple reflection on the seasons, a collaborative expression session, dharma sharing through movement and words, and time for rest and quiet reflection. You are welcome to participate at your own pace. At any time, you may choose to rest, step outside, or simply observe.

No prior experience is needed. All are welcome.
